The hole in your "most goalies" logic (if one calls it that, as it's hardly logical) is it assumes all goalies have to make the exact same saves every 10 shots, and it isn't the case. To do this you'd have to blame the PK % also on Osgood due to how statistically wretched it is. And it doesn't factor logically as this team's defense is horrible with BOTH goaltenders in net. You're barking up the wrong tree.

Are you saying that the saves Biron has made are easier shots to save then the goals Ozzy has let in? As far as I've seen, Biron has had MUCH tougher saves to make, around 20+ more equally difficult saves. And it's really irrelevant how difficult the save is. If you face 10 difficult shots a game, and let 3 in, you're a terrible goalie. It shouldn't matter. You have to make the save no matter how difficult it is. Osgood's Save% is the worst in the league because he's the worst goalie in the league, not because he magically gets more impossible saves then the 29 other teams in the league. It's completely baseless. Detroit gets 20-30 quality chances a night, you don't see opponents letting in even close to 15%.

Detroit doesn't give up any better chances then any other team. They just seem impossible because they always go in.
